Second-grade Rising Star Leaders at Reinhard Early Childhood Center stepped up to show visiting school officials the ins-and-outs of their school building during a special tour on Jan. 17.
The tour was confidently led by members of Reinhard’s Student Star Polisher Team for visiting school administrators to experience several of the Bellmore School District’s innovative leadership programs. For example, students showed how each class works together to create a mission statement for the school year, which are displayed outside the main office and in classrooms. Mission statements are also written in each students’ Leadership Notebook, which also features Wildly Important Goals and activities that reinforce Bellmore’s Core Values and Leadership Principles. Visitors also saw how students work collaboratively, such as one class that made a paper chain with students’ messages of how they can be counted on to be a leader. Additionally, students spoke about the important role of the Student Star Polisher Team, how teamwork is utilized to run several successful donation drives, and about the Leaders of the Arts board, which displays a new inspirational artist each month. The tour concluded with a musical showcase by students in the Reinhard auditorium.
